[mytfew]

The Jam of the late Nineties, love it..

[Dannyboy855]

[HollywoodSheen]

[inkmethod]

[mytfew]

@inkmethod right!

[oliviergar]

C bien de savoir compter Mathieu, important les maths dans ta vie.....pas la mienne jsuis grillé bien vu !!!

[youwouldbetterfuckme]

I miss the time, when Viva played such tracks. Nowadays it plays shit, similar to MTV and other music-like TV stations those watchers even don't know music can be so deeply inspiring, like this.

[wavy904]

this is 1 of my fav songs...

[oliviergar]

Je l'ai adoré à 16 ans.....je l'adore à 37 ans c'est un classique que je ne me lasse pas d'écouter en boucle....

[lathieufunck]

@oliviergar

2011 - 1999 = 12 ans

37 - 16 = 21 ans

Visionnaire, menteur ou mauvais mathématicien peu importe, c'est un classique ^^

[SuperNumber777]

GOSPELDELIC!!!!

[tulip2111]

[youwouldbetterfuckme]

[afrosensuous]

WHAT'S WITH NAMING ALL THE ACTORS-N-SHIT? NO ONE RECOGNIZES THE SAMPLE???  I GUESS THERE'S NO REAL OLD SCHOOLERS AND REAL R&B/SOUL SOLDIERS HERE.

[Sassygraphicz]

PJ's



[funnylatinsuperman]

Oh man - how i've seached and searched for this song, never knowing its title. Thank goodness for YouTube - searched for Raphael, wiki'd his singles and here we are! I love this song - the last of great R&B music from the 90's!

[wyteninja]

[evengrounds1]

its a shame, this song should have way more views

[sahara3yo]

WHAT IS THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE TVs?

[Layzeeee]

@sahara3yo I think it could be a reflection of how society was tuning into TV a lot more with the emergence of "reality TV" a sort of prediction as too how involved we are with the media now....that's something I've thought as well. I think there is a deeper message, what do you think?

[gmjigga]

@Layzeeee lol no, this song was released on the soundtrack to "The PJ's."

[Correctivemind]

I ahd been dying to find out the name of this song since I heard it in amsterdam!

[lisaray101]

I remember watch this video back in 99', but for some reason 3:09 always made me laugh XD

[drakeltheryuujin]

All I could remember was this video where everyone had TVs for heads. Luckily a friend of mine remembered the name and artist from that description lol!

[KINGWYCO]

[djshinobilaty]

the puppet faces in the tvs at certian parts remind me of a black tv show with puppets (was this the theme song maybe?)

some one help me cause i gott to know

[superschmuck]

the puppets were from the PJs which is what you might have been remembering. this song was on the soundtrack but wasnt the theme song. hoped that helped.

[djshinobilaty]

[djg2vc]

This is real real music

[JazzyBelle30]

I love this song. It is indeed real music.

If you really wanna hear real music check out Raphael Saddiq Live at the House of Blues! This song is soooo much better on it.

LIVE! OUTTA THIS WORLD! DOUBLE DISC CD! IT'S A MUST!

[eloquentethos]

this song is so cute, i love it. my dad heard it on the PJ's and he had to know what song it was. im glad he found out.

[TheManAbove]

Seventh grade year, baby! Takes me back!

[E4RBL]

uptown baby, uptown, say what?

[lcj1986]

weird lol

[jdashie]

who directed this?

[rinomanfroni]

I am Italian and I loved this song and I still love it! I remember it was during summer and me and my friend were watching the video on the Italian MTV in a hotel during a weekend out of town. I was still going to high school. I have this song in my playlist since then. Raphael Saadiq is great!

[RussellAthletics]

Notice that this tune came from The Intruders Classic Hit "I Always Love My Moma". Funny how history repeats itself.

[airwalker2000]

thanks man, I was just about to ask what song this sample was taken from

[IrrepressibleGuile]

CLASSIC!!!!!!! definatly under rated..this song atleast

[doonker]

Man, I used to love this vid! Real good sound.

[evfich]

[mylttle1]

This is my Favorite Song by him!!!!!!!!!

[Roshi53l]

Absolutely LOVE this song! Takes me back...

[hersilentface]

going to see him tomorrow!!!

[ceiba1983]

OOps..you're right, i meant to say Underrated..lol

[ceiba1983]

Damn..this song came out in 1998. I was beginning my freshman year in high school..man, i remember when momma use to drop me off at school and we would always tune to 90.3 and it was always on at 6:45am. I was 15 at the time...Great song, and yes, Rafael Saadiq is overrated as an MC.

[NegroMAT]

overrated or underrated?

[rebeljos]

this is r&b/soul at its best....smooth

[marquita417]

I love this song! ! ! Ive been a fan of Raphael Saadiq for years..

[molakessen]

thanks for sharing.

it´s one of my most favorite tunes. nice and smooth chords and a soulfull melody. great!!

[jody808]

very nice jam, i'm going to itunes now to download

[artemi25]

one of the finest rnb tunes ever. classic at its best.

[germaphobe8]

I swear to GOD!

This song brings me back to High School and I still listen to it like it just came out...

Neo Soul will never die!!

[DA8653]

The leading lady was a pretty sistah. Shame we barely see girls like that in music videos today.

[jameswoolsey]

I am a fan of 90's R&B and this is by far one of the best songs to come out of that genre. The video is crappy and could be better, but it's a shame that this video only has 8,351 views (as of this writing) and 16 text comments. Totally underrated.

[angeldank]

Yup sham that not that many people have looked this up. PROBABLY because the artist spells his name with a PH and a double A. This track was the sh*t!

[wrx626]

best song ever, ive been listening to it all day

[eumirday]

miss this man my high school years =-(

[duchess93]

good song. creative video. miss his music

[TymesRhymes]

Lucky

[TymesRhymes]

To the person below me who saw him perform live.

[All4pynk]

I seen him perform LIVE this past weekend and he sang the hell out of this and he sound just as good as the record. I love this song! ... what a cool classic! Raphael always delivers*

[StarStarStario]

'i... don't really care... about that there... just get involved!'

love

[tekhause]

Simply Brilliant.

[gimartinee]

C'mon baby, just get involved and get in control! Such a great piece of R&B, and yet Q-tip gets F-ing bankrupt by getting bad financial advice, and R.S. sorta disappeared. What a fucked up industry! 'scuse the language ;-p

[jobymoma]

Have you heard Raphael Saadiq's new album? It is pure heat, especially if you like 60s soul and rare groove.

[BlackaaDon]

naaw RS is just takin a back seat outta the lights, camera, action, glamour, glitter & gold for now. he be doin big on the producing thing. he worked on Joss stones album and is workin on Dangelos comeback LP james river.

[anticskey]

CLAASSSIC Shit

[peaches143us]

loved this song its on the "pjs" soundtrack

[DA8653]

I've been looking for this song since forever! I never remembered the name of it and who it was by. Thank God for youtube. I love this song! Wish they made more music like this today.

[FreeFortune]

Damm they dont make it like this anymore do they!!!?? Classic most definitly!!

[gqsm]

Superb

[yousifel]

Absolute classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
